Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Alexandra

This Lullaby is about eighteen-year-old Remy, who's a romance cynic. Well, wouldn't you be if your mother was on her fifth husband? Remy has a pattern and a schedule with each of her boyfriends: when to go out, when to kiss, when to break up. Then she meets Dexter, who challenges that pattern. Frightened of being attached, Remy ends it. But when she's trying to get back into her regular rhythm, she falters, and decides that maybe love isn't something to be scared of. Sarah Dessen is an excellent author, with believeable heroines, and this book is no exception.
